Hello Ingo,

thanks, I know this. 

But even the server solution wouldn't really forbid doing something that 
is quite similar to BCC, cause you can simply forward the message to 
achieve something quite similar. Ok, that's not quite as easy as putting 
an email address into BCC, but still not really complicated.
